In one scenario, three people in diverse occupations come together to create an AI solution for their company.
- An AI engineer reckons with the concrete problems of aligning AI’s potential with present business possibilities.
- A cloud specialist roots his company’s AI future in flexible and supportive cloud infrastructure.
- An instructional designer brings a human touch to powerful AI content production.
CompTIA Careers+ answers the challenges that students and job seekers often encounter with career sites and job boards – from not knowing where to start1 to getting bogged down in information overload.2
“CompTIA Careers+ is free and easy to navigate,” Maginnis said. “Users can dive in at their own pace, tailoring their experience to focus on the information that matters most to them.”

In addition to the AI story, CompTIA Careers+ profiles a cybersecurity specialist who works to counter a ransomware attack; a systems engineer who analyzes and protects IT systems during a crisis; a data analyst tasked with maintaining data integrity even when IT security systems are compromised; and an IT support specialist who saves the day when a major problem arises.
“Each occupation module highlights the most critical skills needed for success in that role,” said Henry Mann, senior director, product development, CompTIA. “We also show how technology professionals are contributors and team players essential to an organization’s success, something often overlooked in discussions about tech careers,”
